It’s so funny to me how much ire Elon draws from the HN crowd. HN in general is a very negative place, but it’s amplified to truly remarkable levels of hysteria when discussing Elon.

Amongst my cadre of mostly founder friends Elon is deeply admired. I’d you have ever tried building something new truly by yourself then you know it is capital H Hard. Getting your teeth kicked in by investors and customers and this bizarre breed of self-righteous people that gain purpose from poking you with a stick.

It’s never clear if a new venture will succeed, but the glee I see here for a stumble is pretty disappointing.
